Hard Hat Award (Game #6, @ Miami)

Stiller WR Hinesie Ward is the winner of the weekly Hard Hat Award, given to the Stiller player who best embodies the iron-tough, hard-as-steel attitude of the steel workers inside the blast furnace of a still mill.

Just a few weeks after being held to a paltry 14 yards of receiving against the PoeBirds, Ward had his best all-around game of the season, grabbing 7 passes for 131 yards.His TD was simply an outstanding Hard Hat effort, as he ducked under a tackle on an out, then eluded a tackler at the 4 and then twisted into the EZ.Hines had an incredible grab on a seamer late in the 2Q, in which he plucked a pass away from the DB in amazing fashion for a 26-yard gain.He also had a key 4Q blitz pickup.

There were a couple other players in consideration by The Committee.After fumbling the opening KO, Emanuel Sanders came back with 3 strong returns, plus a good coverage stop and a clutch grab at WR.Jason Worilds came off the bench in the 2H and applied plenty of harassment on the QB in passing situations.McFadden again had strong tackling support.
